matts last show

yeah i was there. it was awesome. i had standing room tickets and marissa jaret winokur sat next to me during the first song. and then she moved to lean against the wall. so many people where in standing room. like ..marc shaiman, scott wittman, margo lion, laura bell bundy, kerry butler and john waters. they were all right next to me. when marissa stood next to me i almost died.
the show it self was really good. im not that much of a kathy brier fan but it was still good. chester was awesome. during run and tell that he said some line about the jungle and tarzan.because matts leaving to do tarzan. harveys words at the end where nice. he talked about how a actor leaves and goes on to do bigger things and then he said the 3 hairspray angels and laura bell, kerry and marissa walked on. it was really nice and matt was crying the whole thing. he started crying during i know where i been.
i dont think i'll be back for awhile. afterall my 2 favorite people..marissa and matt are gone..once marissa comes back whenever that is ill be back.i miss matt already. i cried from the second he walked by me to go down the asile during you cant stop the beat till i walked out . oh yeah matt was so nice afterwards outside the stage door i even got a hug. and i got laura bell bundy and marissas autograph on my hairspray the roots book. i got marisa during intermission and had a nice lil convo. and i got laura bell bundy after the show and she was really nice and she talked about wicked.

re: matts last show

How come Jeff Martin was in the audience? Did you talk to him? He's still in the show, isn't he? I saw him in December, when I went to say goodbye to Matt because I was leaving for winter break from school, and he didn't mention anything about leaving the show soon.

re: matts last show

heres my review. I'm posting this without even reaind the one posted above me becauseI just spen some time typing this out and she beat me to it so there might be some repeats but tuff. lol

Hairspray 1/11/04

The show stared off as Hairspray always does. The first difference was the amount of screams that came from every teenage girl in the audience during the role call. Obviously the screams where set off by "and I'm Link." Then the show proceeded in it's normal, wonderful fashion. We then came upon "Run and Tell That" now at the end of the show when Chestier does his back bend thing and he normally just say "Penny ya gotta run...ya gotta run..run" or something a log that line he replaced it with "Penny even if I'm swing from vines in the jungle you better run and tell that" obviously referring to Matt's move to Tarzan. Then the show went back on it's normall path. It was a wonderful performance in all. Then we get to Jackie's ad-lib :) she started off saying something like "Oh isn't it a wonderful show, and how about that Link it's he a hottie. Well, sorry but I have news for you Corney colleens and Link Larkin are lovers, and one of them isn't even Jewish go figure." Clark just turned around and looked at Matt. Then they went on till Jenn said Mama I'm a pretty girl and then Jackie garbed the end of Crony's mic and said "How does this thing work it's not even plugged in!" then went back to the scene again. It was so Funny! In a little added touch Kathy and Harvey where both wearing I LOVE LINK pins. Then the show ended and Harvey mad a speech that stared off with I got good news and I got bad news.. then he spoke of how well the show was doing and how rear that is in an actors line of work and then he said the bad news is we are loosing to of our original cast members tonight. Then Marc and Scott came on and spoke about each guy very nice and some funny things about each of them. Then at the and Marc said "It is said when we go on to the after live we are met by people who went on before us ...well these guy get that tonight" then on walked Kerry, Marissa,and Laura bell. All of who had watched the show from SRO. It was a little emotional which is to be expected. At one point Mat throw his white jacket into the audience that was kind of fun (I wish I had caught that).

So all and all It was a great show seemed like everyone was having a really good time. I know I did in my front Row seat :)

People in attendance: Margo Lions, Marc Shaiman, Scott Wittman, Marissa Jaret Winoker, Kerry Butler, Laura Bell Bundy, and John Waters.

For the record, that was John Waters in the back of the theatre. Crazy4MattMorrison52- I guess with Matt leaving and all you got confused with who was on the stage and who was in standing room only. Ugh! Mark and Scott's speech was absolutely wonderful. They are both so great. The Linkster sang and danced his heart out. He will be missed beyond words. It doesn't get much better than Matt Morrison. Now get to the gym, Tarzan in training!!!!!!!!!!
